pipes in the shell, though the semantics is a little different: The
second command is invoked whenever the first command has written a
complete line. The line is passed as last argument to the second
command. The new command flag B_KDEBUG_PIPE_FINAL_RERUN causes the
second command to be invoked again (with NULL argument) after the
first command is done.
* Added kprintf_unfiltered() and kputs_unfiltered() which bypass the
pipe mechanism and directly print to the bluescreen/serial output.
* Moved most commands from debug.cpp to the new
debug_builtin_commands.cpp.
* B_KDEBUG_DONT_PARSE_ARGUMENTS commands don't get an argument anymore,
if it would consist of white space only.
* Added new debugger command return value B_KDEBUG_ERROR, which
indicates that executing the command failed. This return code will
abort a complete pipe.
* Since debugger commands can nest (i.e. one command can invoke another
one) the setjmp()/longjmp() mechanism to restore the stack after a
page fault in a command needs more than one jump buffer.
* Added abort_debugger_command(), which longjmp()s out of the currently
executed command. This will also abort the current pipe.
* When pagination is enabled pressing "a" will abort the running command
(as opposed to "q" which only disables the blue screen output, but
lets the command continue).
* Added debugger commands:
- "grep" which can be used to filter output by pattern. Removed the
"filter" command and the underlying mechanism that did that before.
- "head" which prints only the first lines of output of another
command.
- "wc" counts lines, words, and characters of another command's
output.

command usage texts, which can be too long for kprintf().

invoke_debugger_command() is now automatically preceded by
"usage: <command name>", so the string passed to
add_debugger_command_etc() shouldn't contain it anymore.

add_debugger_command(), but additionally takes parameters "usage"
and "flags".
* Added add_debugger_command_alias() which creates another name for an
existing command.
* Added print_debugger_command_usage() to print a command's usage.
* invoke_debugger_command() intercepts invocations with "--help" and
prints the command's usage text, if it is known. If unknown, the
command will be called normally.
* Made use of the new functions in debug.cpp.

a command is executed anymore. Instead the least recently used
temporary variable is overwritten, if there's no free slot for a new
temporary variable.
* Removed the special handling for the command result variable ("_"). It
just works like any other temporary variable, now.
* Individual temporary variables can be removed (e.g. using the "unset"
command).
* Added unset_all_debug_variables() and "unset_all" command to unset
all persistent and temporary variables.
* Removed remove_all_temporary_debug_variables and renamed
remove_debug_variable() to unset_debug_variable().

paging support to KDL (but not the on-screen debug output for now).
* Defaults to "on", use the new "paging" KDL command to turn it off (or on
again).
* When pressing 'q' while it is waiting for a key, it will now eat the rest
of the commands output (helpful for slow screen output of a large data set).

that is a little more powerful than BeOS'. It features:
- Persistent and temporary uint64 variables. The former kind is set
only by the user. The latter (those prefixed "_") can be set
automatically by commands, thus e.g. making it easier to access
members of a dumped structure. They are unset when the next command
is invoked. The special temporary variable "_" is defined as a
command's return value.
- Expressions can contain nested command invocations using brackets
("[ ... ]").
- Command lines are parsed by the expression parser, too. They can
contain command invocations (in brackets) and expressions (in
parentheses).
* Added debugger commands:
- expr: Evaluates the given expression and prints the result.
- unset: Undefines a variable.
- vars: Prints the values of all defined variables.
* Moved debugger command code into its own source file.
